broken thermostat housing bolt

No problem, I have an Edelbrock intake and Holley 650.

To answer your question: yes and no

Honestly I love it. It was a noticeable difference in throttle response but damn that thing sucks down some gas. Hindsight, I should have stayed with a 2 barrel carb for my daily driving.

If you mess up your intake digging out those bolts you can have mine. Good luck.
